KITCHEN BOILER STAND.

Application filed AprI 21, 1922. Serial No. 555,807.

To cz-ZZ whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, JAMES F. ARTHUR, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Dickson City, in the county of Lackawanna and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Kitchen Boiler Stand, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

Among the principal objects which the present invention has in view are: To provide means for mounting` a stand of the character mentioned in service adjusted to suitable heights; to furnish a means for adjusting the boiler in the manner set forth, simple and easy of manipulation; and to provide said means cheaply and simply constructed.

Drawings.

Figure 1 is a vertical section of a boiler stand constructed and arranged in accordance with the present invention, the lower fragment of the usual domestic kitchen boiler being shown in broken lines.

Figure 2 is a top plan view of the same, the boiler being removed and the seating ring or collar being partly cut away to show the construction of the supporting bracket.

Figure 3 is a cross section taken on the line 3-3 in Figure 1.

Figure 4 is a cross section taken on the line 4-4 in Figure 1.

Description.

invention is principally intended to supply the need for adjusting lthe domestic or kitchen boiler in service, and especially with reference to the heating appliance or water-back used in connection therewith. To this end a pillar 9 is employed.

The pillar 9 is constructed from a suitable pipe section threaded at the lower end for engagement by the base 10. At the upper end section the pipe is pierced with a number of perforations 11. The perforations 11 are arranged vertically and preferably in series. The perforations in each series are spaced apart a predetermined distance and the different series are disposed in staggered relation horizontally,

The present that is to say, the horizontal planes of one series of perforations would inter-leave the horizontal planes of the other series. The perforations are disposed in pairs or aligned so that bolts 12 may be passed therethrough extending from side to side of the pillar 9.

The bolts 12 engage perfor-ations pro- 60 vided in the curved clamp ends 13 of the bowed brackets 14. rlhe brackets 14 as seen best in Figure 4 of the drawings are preferably constructed from shallow channel iron shaped as seen best in Figure 1 to 65 spread at the top for engaging the ring collar 15.

To facilitate the assembly of the collar 15 and the brackets 14, the flanges of the chan nel iron are cut away to form seats 16 on 70 which the cylindrical flange of the collar 15 rests. Adjacent the upper extremities of the brackets 14 the said brackets are pierced to receive bolts 17 which when set up hold the collar 15 rigidly in position, with the 75 top flange 18 thereof disposed so as to fit within the lower flanged edge 19 of the boiler 20.

It is obvious that when arranging the boiler 20 the bolts 12 may be removed from 80 any series of perforations 11 with which they may be engaged, and the brackets 14 may be adjusted with reference to the pillar 9 up and down thereon, when the proper adjustment, or that adjustment which properly disposes the boiler 20 is attained. The bolts 12 are inserted through the perforations 11 nearest the level with the perforations formed in the clamp ends 13 of the bracket 14. It may be necessary in arrangino' this that the brackets or the pillar 9 with its base 10 shall be rotated relatively to present the said perforations 11 to the bolts 12. The bolts 12 having been secured the stand is ready to receive the boiler 20 95 which is then placed as shown by the dotted lines in Figure 1 of the drawings.

Claim.

aligned apertures, and bolts for disposition through the apertures of said arms and through a series of apertures in the standard for securing said to the standard in adjustable relation therewith,

JAMES F. ARTHUR.
